Title says all :)

Is it possible to preload Options or Moptions from a text file or CSV instead of being load from the elogd.conf ?

Forget scripting under Windows, this is painful and not really working. Wrong OS for that.

But have you considered conditional attributes? With this you can load different option lists straight from the elogd.cf file. Use something like this:

Not really...
The thing is I have to let some users the capacity of changing the content of that option list.. I was hoping there could be a different way for 
them then to edit the cfg file...

 I'm looking for config examples of a shift log book where operators have to check a box or select their name from a list to prove they
have read the latest entries in the log, can anyone help.

 
    icon2.gif   Re: Read Validation, posted by Stefan Ritt on Sat Apr 2 17:56:04 2016 
Unfortunately a read confirmation is not foreseen in the Elog system. You would have to define one attribute for each shift worker, like "John has
read", "Steve has read" and so on. Then each of the shift workes has to "Edit" each message an check his/her checkmark manually.

As a variant of what Stefan has suggested:

Perhaps a simple comment is set up as the pre-loaded reply - perhaps including date and time.  Maybe include the author's name in the
comment, but all that is available anyway (see documentation for that).  This bit isn't vital.

Appreciate the help..

Thanks

Hi

Can I asign a URL to a Radio Button to bring up another program?
    icon2.gif   Re: URL, posted by Stefan Ritt on Tue Mar 22 12:47:50 2016 
You can do this by adding manyallty some JavaScript to the page.

OK thanks Stefan.

Thats another programming language I'll have to learn then. :-)

The Elog config I am just getting to grips with but Java and Scripts are a bit beyond me.
icon5.gif   Width of text field, posted by Edward Diehl on Tue Mar 22 18:28:03 2016 
I use a elog which has a text field to show log entries:  https://classis01.roma1.infn.it/elog/calib/     In the "Summary"
view there are only 3 lines of about 40 characters shown, so often the entry is cut off even though there is plenty of space in the text box for longer
lines.   To see the full entry you must click on the ID number.   Is there any way to configure the Text box to show longer lines?  
    icon2.gif   Re: Width of text field, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Wed Mar 23 11:40:52 2016 
Did you try the options


Summary lines = x
Summary line length = x


as
documented in https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#flags ?

I attempted instead to build from the tar ball, and, except for a "fatal" git error, make built elogd, elog, and elconv.  I put
the first in /usr/local/sbin, and the latter two in /usr/local/bin, and then restarted elogd, but this didn't work:

OK.  I found the source of the logbook problem in an exchange from May 2015, so no need to answer this one.

But I would like to be able to upgrade to 3.x from 2.9, so any help with this will be much appreciated.

I did the following on CentOS 6.7 (Should work for Fedora and RHEL as well):

icon5.gif   upgrade problem, posted by Tim Schelfhout on Tue Mar 15 19:53:55 2016 
Hello there,

After several years of great ELOG usage I decided to upgrade our ELOG server.  I am using it to keep 
a logbook of my students.
    icon2.gif   Re: upgrade problem, posted by Andreas Luedeke on Wed Mar 16 08:39:55 2016 
Hi Tim,

starting with ELOG version 3 all entries are moved into sub-directories for each year.

If you move the files back
from the sub-directories and restart elogd, then the entries should appear again in the logbook with ELOG 2.9.2.

 

I don't
know how to solve your other problem. Maybe you should talk to someone locally who can administer your windows server?

Cheers, Andreas

Hi,

Is it possible to pre-populate a field based on the selection of another field. I like to have the Equipment Description field populated
when the use makes a selection on the EQ# field.

Use "conditional attributes" as described in the documentation: https://midas.psi.ch/elog/config.html#conditional
